The Corporate Person (Written in recognition of the Supreme Courts emergence as a legislative body)

Akhenaten decided the Sun was the supreme God.
Not a very good idea.
Demoted deities, preeminent for 1000 years,
Were not pleased. Bad things happened.

Friday a new species was created.
Some rights, reserved for citizens of the United States,
Were extended to paper entities.

In the best “Animal Farms” tradition,
Been retained.
Only the definition of “people” has been modified.
